I am adding to it all the time, at the moment it still needs a few tweeks but I am very happy with it!
I will list new masks and accessories so that there is more of a variety to my Etsy store.

Bird of prey ..Eagle mask commission ..finished!
I have been working on a commission these last few weeks, and I am pleased to say it is now finished and in the post!
I was asked to make an eagle character, that looked like a superhero but slightly menacing.
I bought several hundred feathers and after adding a mod roc (plaster bandage) beak to a pre-made mask and painting that a yellowish colour, I set about adding all the feathers,.. most of them individually!
This is the base with mod roc and gesso as a base for the paint.
When it was all dry, I painted the beak.
I painted the base in shades of grey and put black around the eyes.
Then ...I added the feathers, trying to get a smooth layer all over.
Looking pretty good at this stage, nice and fluffy! lol
There is grey felt around the eyes to neaten the edges and give a frown effect and black ribbon attached inside to tie.
And ..this is the finished mask!

Beautiful Peacock Mask
I have been working on a peacock mask again, I did one a year or so ago and really enjoyed making it!
This time I used some mod podge and a pretty serviette, I had to make sure it was different to my first one because as a rule I try not to repeat unless I get asked too!
I built plaster bandage over a plastic base and shaped a nice beak, but not as long and pointy as my first peacock mask.
When it was dry I painted it all over with acrylic and decorated it with glitter and gems, feathers and sequin trim.
The back is lined with soft white felt and the mask ties with long black ribbon.
You can see that I managed to put the peacock head central on the mask, I quite like how this looks!
The beak is gold and even though it is plaster based it isn't too heavy!
This is a comfortable mask and I would say fits a small or medium adult.
You can find this mask in my Etsy shop :)
